This physics video tutorial explains how to solve the ballistic pendulum problem where a bullet is fired at a hanging wooden block. The bullet remains embedded in the block in an inelastic collision where kinetic energy is not conserved but momentum is conserved. The bullet block system rises to a height 'h' which this video explains how to calculate it using conservation of energy principles. Conservation of momentum occurs for any collision elastic collisions and inelastic collisions. This video contains plenty of examples and practice problems.
